To optimize results and to ensure it's win-win-win for authors, readers, and Review Saint, we have some basic rules and regulations. Please follow all of these. Taking a slot with us, or buying a service from us, means you agree to follow these rules and requirements - in both the spirit of the law, and the letter of the law.
 
 
1) You will not offer a shoddy product. Readers are taking out their precious time to review your book. Basic human courtesy, as well as common sense, dictates that you don't send them a book until and unless it is proofread, edited, well-formatted, and polished. Books that are not polished will be kicked out of ReviewSaint if readers complain. There is ZERO compensation in case your book fails editing and formatting and proof-reading requirements.
 
2) You will use intelligent marketing. The books you share, whether via store or via us, or directly, must ideally include ALL of the following -
 
A) Text on 1st page after cover -> If you like this book, please review it.
If shared directly, or via ReviewSaint - It is allowed and recommended to link to the book's product page in each of the main ebook stores (Kindle, Nook, Apple, Kobo, Google Play).
If shared via a specific ebook store - then only link to the store itself is allowed. You cannot link from a book in Kindle Store to Apple Store, or vica versa. This will get your book kicked out of that store so please avoid this.
 
B) Text on last page of the book, ON THE LAST PAGE ITSELF UNDER THE  BOOK's ENDING PARA, not on a separate page-> 
If you liked this book, Please Review It and Share It With Your Friends (with link to book's page).
 
Important: Stores only allow linking to the same store book is sold from. So please adjust your books accordingly
 
C) Link to Your Email List on 1st page after cover. Link to Your Email List and website on 1st page after book ends
 
D) A DEDICATED PAGE after cover, at beginning of book (Page 1 or Page 2 after cover). Text on Page must be something like
 
This Book is being shared with you, Dear Reader, for free, in return for an honest review.
 
The author kindly requests
 
1) If you like the book, please review it at the book product page - LINK!
 
2) Please end your review at the store, with a single line - The reviewer received a free copy of the book in return for an honest review. No other compensation was offered or received.
 
3) If there are major editing, grammar, formatting, or other issues which prevent you from enjoying the book, please email the author at <author email @ email for author> and let the author know so the author can fix these mistakes. We are sorry for the pain you had to go through. The author apologizes as the author did work on the book and had it proofread, and edited, and formatted. The author agrees to fix the issues you have found, within a reasonable timeframe. Additionally, the author agrees to use better editors and proofreaders for all future books.
 
4) If you liked this author's work, you can sign up for the Author's Email Newsletter at X. The author also offers a free story/novel/bundle for readers who sign up.
 
5) This entire process is being conducted by Review Saint (www.reviewst.com/getreviews/). You can sign up at Review Saint to get free copies of quality books in exchange for honest reviews - www.reviewst.com. 
 
 
 
 
3) You will not overdo marketing. The books you share, must NOT include any of the following -
 
Cliffhangers
Happy for Now Endings i.e. unresolved endings or temporary endings. It is OK to have first in a series. However, full or partial cliffhangers are NOT allowed
Links to competing products (that compete with ReviewSt or with Books Butterfly)
Links to email lists of any author other than yourself (your pen names are fine)
Links to stores other than the store that book is being distributed through
Links to any book store that you run yourself or with an affiliate or partner
Links to any promotion site other than Books Butterfly (www.booksbutterfly.com/bookpromotion/) 
 
 
 
 
4) Book must have a high quality and proper cover. What do we mean by a proper cover
 
A) Ideally made by a top notch designer like www.damonza.com or www.goonwrite.com.
 
B) All images used are properly licensed.
 
C) Fonts are clear and legible
 
D) If made yourself, then you either have graphical professional experience or you spent a minimum of 5 hours perfecting and crafting the cover.
 
E) Beautiful. If not beautiful, at least pretty
 
Additionally, you AGREE with ReviewSaint that the cover is the SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT DETERMINANT of whether or not readers ask for a copy of your book to review. And that if you do not follow these rules and/or do not follow Review Saint requests of cover improvements, then you take 100% responsibility if you do not get enough reviews.
 
 
 
 
5) What happens if I don't get enough requests for my book? What happens if I don't get enough reviews for my book?
 
If you get very few requests for your book, or if very few people review your book, Review Saint will either
 
A) Offer you 6 months free of our $10 per month REview Gathering Site
 
or
 
B) Offer you 12 months free of our $10 per month Review Gathering Site
 
These will generally be offered if
 
You get Review Silver slot and get less than 20 book requests and/or less than 5 book reviews within a 3 month period
 
You get Review Gold or higher slots and get less than 40 book requests and/or less than 10 book reviews within a 3 month period
 
In exceptional cases ReviewSaint might do a prorated refund. However, we are NOT signing up for refunds.
 
You agree that NO OTHER COMPENSATION other than 6 months free of our $10/month Review Gathering Site will be offered or be expected. We can only put your book in front of our readers. If our readers are not interested, they are not interested.
 
Additionally, whether or not readers review your book depends on whether or not they like it. We do not control either dimension and if your book doesn't connect, you agree to receive no other compensation other than 6 months free of our $10 per month Review Gathering Site service.
 
 
 
 
6) All Reviews that happen in the first 3 months after listing with Review Saint are attributed to Review Saint. There are no exceptions to this rule. As you might imagine there are 2% of authors who always have long lost cousins, grand uncles, cats, unicorns, and bears that crawl out of the woodwork and decide to start reviewing right around the time our readers start reading and reviewing their books.

98% of authors are great. They are a pleasure to work with. Kindly do not be the 2% who are difficult or downright painful to work with. Please follow these rules and regulations - in both the letter of the law, and the spirit of the law.
 
If you fall into the 1% who are delusional about the relationship between the quality of your book, the results you desire, and the results you will get, kindly abstain from using our service. Your book will get reviews directly proportional in number and quality to the quality of your book itself. We cannot change that. You cannot change that (unless you improve the quality of your book). That's how the universe operates.
 
If you fall into the 1% who are super negative, kindly avoid our services like the plague. There is no free lunch. There is no 'pay $100 and buy 100 5-star reviews'. There is no 'pay $100 and get 100 reviews'. There is no 'Every review will be great'. There is no Easy button. The more work you put into your writing and book, the better it will be. The better your book, the better the results. Please use a vanity press if you want results disproportionate to the quality of your writing and book. We are NOT in the vanity press or ego-stoking businesses.
